In this video I want to show you how we can use SVG to draw things on the screen.
and that's what we want to show in this video.
I just have to create a tag named SVG.
and the system is going to show whatever I am drawing only if it's inside this box.
we can actually add styles to SVG as well.
one pixel thickness and it's going to be black.
So now we have a border and we actually can see our SVG element.
you can start drawing inside it.
you can just use the tag rect.
Here we don't really need anything inside rect.
What we need to tell is what is the dimensions of this rect.
So we can say that it has width 50 and height 50.
can move this rect around by changing x and y.
and then my square is going to move based on those coordinates that I give.
So it's important to remember that zero zero starts here on the top.
the number increases as well.
So that's why 20/20 is basically the distance from here to here and from here to here.
what I can do is same thing.
I can just use circle.
measured by width and height, they're measured by radius.
So I'm going to say here that the radius using r is 20 pixels as well.
So this is going to create a circle and you see that it is here on the top.
The difference here is that circles are positioned based on their center.
the center and cy to move my circle.
I'm going to change its color.
I can use fill and then I have a different color to the circle.
so one element is after other or before other, they don't overlap.
You have to force that using some CSS or some other technique.
Things are going to overlap.
One element is not aware of the other one in order to position itself.
here and it's going position even like this overlapping each other.
the square is because the circle comes after here on the HTML.
That's the order that things are drawn on the screen.
to move this but I want to move both together.
and I don't want to keep coming x and y of each one and changing them.
What you can do is create a group.
that's the name of the tag.
We're going to put both inside the group.
it doesn't really affect what you see.
and we can do that by using transform.
translate and we want to translate everything 50 pixels.
You'll see that now both move together.
the group and there's going to be moved or whatever other change I do.
you see that rotating if I do it to 30, it's rotating again.
And one thing that is important here is where is the axis of the rotation.
So it's going to put something here.
It's going to rotate around this point.
You can move that by adding information to the rotation as well.
I want to move around this other one.
because now the axis of rotation is a different one.
You see if I do 60, it's going to move more around the center of my element.
and in this case I cannot hear my text as if it was an HTML element.
rotated with all the elements that I have inside that group.
the base of what we are going to be using to create visualizations.
them can be covered using SVG that is usually faster than trying to draw with HTML.
render it much faster than dealing directly with HTML.

Fourteenth Amendment
Annotation 37 - Fourteenth Amendment
SECTIONS 3 AND 4. DISQUALIFICATION AND PUBLIC DEBT
The right to remove disabilities imposed by this section was exercised by Congress at different times on behalf of enumerated individuals. 71 In 1872, the disabilities were removed, by a blanket act, from all persons ''except Senators and Representatives of the Thirty-sixth and Thirty-seventh Congresses, officers in the judicial, military and naval service of the United States, heads of departments, and foreign ministers of the United States.'' 72 Twenty-six years later, Congress enacted that ''the disability imposed by section 3 . . . incurred heretofore, is hereby removed.'' 73
Although Sec. 4 ''was undoubtedly inspired by the desire to put beyond question the obligations of the Government issued during the Civil War, its language indicates a broader connotation. . . . '[T]he validity of the public debt'. . . [embraces] whatever concerns the integrity of the public obligations,'' and applies to government bonds issued after as well as before adoption of the Amendment. 74
Section 4. The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obliga tion incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void.
[Footnote 71] E.g., and notably, the Private Act of December 14, 1869, ch.1, 16 Stat. 607.
[Footnote 72] Ch. 193, 17 Stat. 142.
[Footnote 73] Act of June 6, 1898, ch. 389, 30 Stat. 432. Legislation by Congress providing for removal was necessary to give effect to the prohibition of Sec. 3, and until removed in pursuance of such legislation persons in office before promulgation of the Fourteenth Amendment continued to exercise their functions lawfully. Griffin's Case, 11 Fed. Cas. 7 (C.C.D.Va. 1869) (No. 5815). Nor were persons who had taken part in the Civil War and had been pardoned by the President before the adoption of this Amendment precluded by this section from again holding office under the United States. 18 Op. Att'y Gen. 149 (1885). On the construction of ''engaged in rebellion,'' see United States v. Powell, 27 Fed. Cas. 605 (C.C.D.N.C. 1871) (No. 16,079).
[Footnote 74] Perry v. United States, 294 U.S. 330, 354 (1935), in which the Court concluded that the Joint Resolution of June 5, 1933, insofar as it attempted to override the gold-clause obligation in a Fourth Liberty Loan Gold Bond ''went beyond the congressional power.'' On a Confederate bond problem, see Branch v. Haas, 16 F. 53 (C.C.M.D. Ala. 1883) (citing Hanauer v. Woodruff, 82 U.S. (15 Wall.) 439 (1873), and Thorington v. Smith, 75 U.S. (8 Wall.) 1 (1869)).

Although doing a painting job yourself, seems a good economically reasonable task, in order to any day better in which you hired a professional for the task. The advantage of hiring a professional painter is not just to save your time, but along with get a good work done. To ensure that the painting in your house is long lasting, a professional house painter is the best longterm option. In fact in case you did the painting yourself, you can sometimes be sure that you would have to repeat the task much more frequently. This way, you would not very be effectively saving money in case you did the job yourself. Yet, how an individual ensure that you are hiring the right artists?
For that you hold some basic questions. Provide appointments with your prospective house painters. Keep a large amount of time set aside for the task. The earliest important task is set up a good rapport. Unless you have a good understanding with your painter, specialists . never depend upon the kind of outcome. Ask the painter how does he propose to prepare the surface? Ensure that your painter is involving a full format of washing, scrapping and sanding. In case your house is a newly constructed one with a bare surface, you would would need to ask about the treatment your painter would use before that. The treatment needed in this case, is priming.
Let your painter look around and ask him, which areas he plans to caulk. In fact each one of the bad painting job is due to improper caulking. Ensure that your painter is doing that skillfully. Ensure that the painter is skilled at repair works as extremely well. Also ensure that the kind of materials that are in use by the painter is of high quality. Obviously, you will not have to go for the costly materials, but the ones that have been too cheap are not desirable as well. Ask these preliminary questions and do your research well, you can be particular your choice will 't be bad.

Q: return populated fields from a join table in SQLalchemy Flask UserService is a join table connecting Users and Services tables. I have a query that returns all the tables that have a user_id = to the id passed in the route.
@bp.route('/user/<id>/services', methods=['GET'])
def get_services_from_user(id):
    user = db_session.query(User).filter(id == User.id).first()

    if not user:
        return jsonify({'Message': f'User with id: {id} does not exist', 'Status': 404})

    user_services = db_session.query(UserService).filter(user.id == UserService.user_id).all()
    result = user_services_schema.dump(user_services)

    for service in result:
        user_service = db_session.query(Service).filter(service['service_id'] == Service.id).all()
        result = services_schema.dump(user_service)
        return jsonify(result)

result holds a list that looks as such:
[
    {
        "id": 1,
        "service_id": 1,
        "user_id": 1
    },
    {
        "id": 2,
        "service_id": 2,
        "user_id": 1
    }
]

how could I then continue this query or add another query to get all the actual populated services (Service class) instead of just the service_id and return all of them in a list? The for loop is my attempt at that but currently failing. I am only getting back a list with one populated service, and not the second.

A: You could try something like this:
userServies = db_session.query(Users, Services).filter(Users.id == Services.id).all()

userServices would be an iterable. You should use:
for value, index in userServices:
to iterate through it. (Could be index, value I'm not 100% sure of the order)
There is another way using .join() and adding the columns that you need with .add_columns().
There is also another way using
db_session.query(Users.id, Services.id, ... 'all the columns that you need' ...).filter(Users.id == Services.id).all()

Hijackings and attacks are any shipowner's worst nightmare, given the threat to crew safety. Seafarers may be killed or held hostage for months in miserable conditions. The shipping industry goes to great lengths in its endeavours to prevent hijackings, by means of protective measures on vessels (alarm systems, cameras, barbed wire and private security guards), and through crew training.
However, beyond shipping, piracy also affects international trade as a whole.
Cyber risk management is one of the shipping industry's main challenges, as technology (IT) and Operating Technology (OT) systems onboard ships are used for a multitude of purposes, such as controlling engines and associated systems, cargo management, electronic sea charts, navigational equipment, administration, etc. Not only does it ensure the security and the safety of vessels, but it also protects the marine environment. Their use has traditionally been assumed safe and secure whilst not interconnected on board and also not linked digitally to ashore. Digitalisation of communication, integration and networking of shipboard equipment has, however, exposed ships to cyber risks and cyber attacks.
In recent years merchant shipping has rescued thousands of refugees at sea in the Mediterranean. The shipping industry therefore does not question the humanitarian imperative to help people and ship in need of assistance. However we see that people traffickers abuse the law of the sea, putting thousands of lives in jeopardy. Therefore the humanitarian crisis is not only a problem for the international community, but it is also very much an issue for the shipping industry.

Home What is? What is Clear Web, Deep Web and Dark Web?
1 What is Clear Web?
2 What is Deep Web?
3 What is Dark Web?
Most controversial topic, What is Clear Web, Deep Web and Dark Web? Most of the people will not don't even know that there is an internet exist beyond their imagination. Many knows that there is something hidden but don't know how to access it. Well, I personally believe, do not even try to access it. Why? You will find out soon by reading this article.
I, Harman Singh Hira, only use written information and images those I have found on public search engine(s), like Google. All the source(s) are mentioned in the end of this article. The aim of this article is just to provide information on this topic to general public.
Also known as Surface Web, Visible Web, Indexed Web, Indexable Web or Lightnet, is that segment of the World Wide Web that is promptly accessible to the overall population and accessible with standard web search engines, like Google. Clear Web is comprised of static and settled pages. Static pages don't rely upon a database for their substance. They live on a server holding up to be recovered, and are essentially html documents whose substance never shows signs of change.
Also known as Underground Web, Invisible Web, Non-Indexable Web or deepnet, are parts of the World Wide Web whose substance are not filed by standard web crawlers for any reason. The substance is holed up behind HTML shapes. The profound web incorporates numerous extremely normal uses, for example, web mail and internet managing an account additionally paid for administrations with a paywall, for example, video on request, and some more. PC researcher Michael K. Bergman is credited with begetting the term deep web in 2001 as a pursuit ordering term.
According to fact mentioned by WhoIsHostingThis, 96% is the deep web, that is visible but illegal to use. Deep Web includes torrent websites, Government databases, FTP Servers, Honetpots, etc.
Also known as Onion network or Tor web, is the World Wide Web content that exists on darknets, overlay systems which utilize the Internet yet require particular programming, setups or approval to get to. The dull web shapes a little piece of the profound web, the piece of the Web not recorded via web crawlers.
It is illegal to access it and it is invisible as well. Clear Web is 4% and Deep Web is 96% so what is the percentage of Dark Web? Well, dark web is 0% and at the same time, it is 100%. Because, dark web do not use Top Level Domains, like .com, .net, .org. There is a special Top Level Domain for dark web, which is ".onion". You can not access these websites via normal browser. You need special application, like Tor Browser to access them.
Technically, you should not access deep or dark web, not only because it is illegal but it's disgusting. Enjoying a human die painfully is really not so enjoyable. I also not recommend using Tor Browser, because, somehow by mistake, you may access this side of internet. If you are really concern about your privacy then you can use proxy servers. They have an eye on us, rather you are accessing internet naked, via proxy or Tor. Why Tor? Because there are also many onion websites, like Silk Road that closed now. If they can't see us through Tor then how these websites shut down by Government?

Abstract: In experiments searching for a nonzero electric dipole moment of trapped particles, frequency shifts correlated with an applied electric field can be interpreted as a false signal. One such effect, referred to as the geometric phase effect, is known to occur in a magnetic field that is nonperfectly homogeneous. The increase in sensitivity of experiments demands improved theoretical description of this effect. In the case of fast particles, like atoms at room temperature and low pressure, the validity of established theories was limited to a cylindrical confinement cell in a uniform gradient with cylindrical symmetry. We develop a more general theory valid for an arbitrary shape of the magnetic field as well as for arbitrary geometry of the confinement cell. Our improved theory is especially relevant for experiments measuring the neutron electric dipole moment with an atomic comagnetometer. In this context, we have reproduced and extended earlier numerical studies of the geometric phase effect induced by localized magnetic impurities.

Welcome to my Q4 2013 outlook. There is some major news that affects the real estate sector and my overall outlook going forward.
The most critical news was what came out of the Federal Reserve meeting last week. Bernake announced that the Fed would in fact not reduce it's stimulus and continue pumping money into the economy at this time. This came as a surprise to the market, as he issued a warning in May, which inadvertently caused a 1% rise in mortgage rates. My take on this is that the Fed is backtracking from that statement as it was pre-mature and they didn't realize that would cause an alarm in sectors such as real estate which was in the process of recovering. A steady rise is preferred, but a 1% jump was a shock to home buyers because it is material in mortgage calculations especially to those who were pushing their limits. The fact of the matter is that our economy is recovering very slowly and the unemployment rate continues to hover at 7.6%. However, the Fed's easy money policy is designed to pump money into the economy in an attempt to jump start spending and overall activity in the marketplace. Since rates are so low, there is no incentive for consumers to leave money in the bank to earn 1/10th of a percentage in savings accounts. This has everyone flocking to the stock market which is closing at all time highs, as well as real estate investing which has pushed home prices close/over levels seen at the peak before the sub-prime mortgage crisis. Personally I am very concerned that this approach is creating asset bubbles across the board, from the stock market to the real estate sector. Are we trading short term gains for more long term pain and in fact slowing down a natural more sustainable recovery? As far as rates, they may drop slightly, but with this level of uncertainty, people are guessing when the fed will layoff stimulus and that will likely prevent a sharp drop.
As I've been saying over multiple quarters, our local real estate boom has been aggressively accelerating since February of 2012 and is not sustainable, which we are seeing effects of that now. What I didn't know was that we would slow so quickly. This was due to Bernake's comments in May, there has since emerged the tale of three markets; prestige areas with great schools, locations further from center (without strong schools) and investment properties.
The markets with great schools or prestige locations close to the center of technology, continue to see low inventory and high demand with multiple offers aggressively pursuing these homes. Some of the loan buyers may have been priced out due to the 1% rate jump, however these areas tend not to slow down much at all. There maybe less bidders than before, but given that these homes are very limited and demand high, there maybe less bidding, but these homes will continue to move quickly and be competitive. One of my clients were looking at a home on the Peninsula that had 12 offers and sold $250,000 over list price, this is the price tag for this type of home. When I look at the inventory levels in cities such as Mountain View, Los Altos, Cupertino, Saratoga and Menlo Park, homes go into pending very quickly and there are very few active homes.
Markets that maybe further from the center of technology or not supported by strong schools took a hit especially in June and July. In these 2 months, the pending home sales were actually below the active homes which means homes took longer to sell. These were tough months as Seller's and Agent's alike were listing homes expecting the rapid increase in pricing and may in some cases saw minimal activity and more competition. These factors created the perfect storm. Seller's were following the former market, while Buyer's were hit right at their pocket books with the rate increases pricing many people out of their range and at the same time that summer inventory gave Buyer's more choices. The Seller's that needed to sell had to reduce their prices to a level that Buyer's actually felt was worthwhile to go through the process. Many took their listings down or had to negotiate below the latest comparable sales. I also noticed many loans falling through and pending homes coming back on the market which is never a good situation. However, in August and September the statistics show homes are more even as far as active to pending homes. Likely the price drops have lured some Buyer's in and the drops in summer inventory, balancing a bit better with the available Buyer's on the market. Personally I much prefer markets in equilibrium rather than the lopsided market as we have seen over the last year and a half.
Lastly, investors continue to be out and about with cash from overseas, locally as well as institutions. Hence lower priced homes less than $600,000 become heavily sought after as they can generate income and a possibility for appreciation. The math is simple. If I have $500,000 in cash and let's say I buy a single family home. Let's assume rent is $2,000 a month which generates $24,000 a year. If I take out property tax as an expense ($6,249), my return on investment is $17,750 a year (assuming no other expenses). This is a 3.55% return on investment in which the alternative would be to sit in the bank earning next to nothing in this macroeconomic climate. However, this scheme is understood by many and cash was in fact 32% of August sales. What I've found with my investors is that the competition is so fierce that the home price jumps to a point where the excel spreadsheet stops making sense. Even worse, on homes such as these, regular home buyers looking for primary homes will be generally out of the running against these strong cash offers that have no loan dependencies and very fast close times. Cash simply is king! For my investors, I personally feel that home prices have increased to a point where investing in our local may not make a ton of sense.
I like to review some of the activity I've been running into, in order to give you a sample of what is going on in the marketplace. Overall, I have more Buyer's opting to wait it out to see what happens in the marketplace. Here are a few more samples in the last 3 months.
455 Alegra Terrace in Milpitas, this listing hit the market literally two weeks into the slowdown. Showings and overall interest was very low. This home eventually sold after a price drop, with a slight loan extension provided as the lending process has gotten more challenging. Congratulations to my Sellers for weathering the storm!
1891 Anne Marie Court in San Jose, hit the market right at the beginning of the slowdown. We planned for the aggressive price increases from the previous market which never came. After a couple of price drops, we got an offer that eventually fell through due to loan issues. This property is now available for rent. Let me know if you or someone you know is interested!
Closed last week, new townhome development on the Peninsula bought in the second release! Ask me where this is located!
729 Chopin Drive in Sunnyvale, due to the convenient location of this home and the overall strong school districts, we had to battle 4 other offers to win this home. The intangibles mattered in being the winning offer on this home!
New Home Development in the Southbay. Lovely 4 bedroom, 3.5 bathrooms brand new Single Family Home at 2,700 square feet. Ask me where this is located!
New Home Development on the Peninsula, 5th time was a charm as we won the lottery on the 5th try! Ask me where this is located!
I expect Prestige Areas to continue what they do, so if schools are what you want, gear up and be ready to compete. I do see a more balanced market in that sweet spot in Locations Further From Center. The closer you are to the center of technology in the Palo Alto/Mountain View area, the more competitive it will be. Since the stock market is doing so well, buyers have plenty of equity from Google, Apple, Linkedin, Facebook and the list goes on. Next year there are rumors of IPO's from companies such as Twitter and Box, which will create more wealth in the valley. At the same time prices have been very aggressive and builders have been adding inventory to meet this demand. With newer Townhomes selling in the high $800,000's and above in Mountain View and Sunnyvale, the affordability factor and rising interest rates are stopping many Buyers from jumping in. I expect prices to stabilize from their aggressive acceleration as demand calms. What is unclear is will there be a second coming of the madness we have seen? Given that rates will likely hold steady and prices won't drop overnight, I see a steady calm as the market shifts to equilibrium. In my opinion it is long overdue as it was never sustainable to see 20%+ increases in home prices. The old adage rings true, "what goes up must come down", remember that real estate is a long term investment, but you should ride the waves appropriately.
If you are in the first or third bucket of homes, I'd say you are still in a good position if you need to sell your home but the comparables will have to be taken with a grain of salt. Of course strategies will vary depending on where you are located, so contact me for a customized evaluation. Those of you in the second bucket, will have to adjust your expectations to a calmer market.
In many areas we are coming off peak prices to more stable prices. This is overall good news if you have been on the fence waiting to buy. However, this is a steady stabilization, not a situation where we can come with aggressive low offers and expect them to be accepted. Homes will sell closer to list price, unless there is competition. Again if you are in bucket 1 or 3, be ready to battle for homes as the competition is still alive and well. The key decision to make here is do you buy now right off the possible peak, or hold for the next downturn. I with I had a crystal ball of when that is, but if you have housing needs now and can't wait, at least you aren't buying at the peak of the market, assuming the market doesn't come roaring back. I do want to say let's not forget the big picture. 4.75% is still a great interest rate, you may just have to scale back a bit on what you are looking. Ask your parents what they paid in the 80's and they will remind you that their mortgages were over double digits for sure.
I wish you all the best as we head into the holiday season and thank all of you that constantly refer customers to me. If you or your friends and family have real estate needs, please remember me when the need arises!

Q: FORTRAN how to skip a line while reading lines in a DO loop? I'm trying to read a file line by line using a DO and read to manipulate individual lines. However, I'm trying to skip a line wherever I see something I don't want.
Here's what I have so far:
DO J=1,10000
  READ(1,'(A150)') ROW
  IF (J==A(1)+1 .AND. ROW(17:17)=='|') THEN
    WRITE(2, '(A)') ROW(1:12) // ROW(15:150)
  ELSEIF (J>A(1) .AND. J<A(2) .AND. ROW(1:1)=='#') THEN
  ! Here's where I need to skip J and go onto J+1 and then continue the DO loop from there
  END IF
END DO

How can I do it?

A: Use CYCLE:
DO J=1,10000
  READ(1,'(A150)') ROW
  IF ((J==A(1)+1) .AND. (ROW(17:17).EQ.'|')) THEN
    WRITE(2, '(A)') ROW(1:12) // ROW(15:150)
  ELSEIF (J.GT.A(1) .AND. J.LT.A(2) .AND. ROW(1:1)=='#') THEN
    CYCLE
  END IF
  ! More statements here
END DO

As Hristo pointed out, CYCLE is only necessary if you have more statements following the IF ... END IF.

Belle Terre students write to soldier, receive American flag in return
Chief Patrick Prevot, the wife of Michelle Prevot, has been stationed in Afghanistan since early 2018. Donnamarie Giglio (Michelle Prevot's aunt) and her first-grade class at Belle Terre Elementary wrote him Valentines in February, sent jokes in plastic eggs with candy and other goodies in March and recently wrote him letters thanking him for protecting our freedom and telling him why our freedom of speech, religion, assembly and the press are important.
Patrick Prevot flew the American flag in his Apache Longbow helicopter on one of his missions, and he sent the flag to students. BTES flew the flag outside the school and pledged to the flag. Michelle Prevot and her son Brantley were in attendance for this event. Giglio said the flag will forever be displayed in the school's display case for all to see.
One-handed linebacker sends autographed photo to Bunnell Elementary student who lost use of his hand in fireworks accident
After watching Shaquem Griffin — then the one-handed linebacker for the University of Central Florida — play in the Peach Bowl against Auburn University on Jan. 1, 2018, Flagler Schools teacher Angela Reed said she was amazed at his ability.
Reed wrote to Griffin's football coaches at UCF and asked if he could send a signed photo to his neighbor just 90 minutes north — Faizon Brown, a student at Bunnell Elementary, who lost the use of one hand after a serious fireworks accident on July 4, 2017.
To Reed's surprise, the sports agents for Shaquem and Shaquill Griffin (his twin brother and Seattle Seahawks cornerback) delivered two signed photographs — one from each brother. The one from Shaquem is personalized with Faizon's name on it. Reed said Brown's mother was very grateful. Faizon Brown was shy when receiving the photos, but his mother said he has been watching Shaquem Griffin play, and it encourages him.
i3 Academy alligator farm project
On Thursday, May 3, Flagler i3 Academy students unveiled their interactive, augmented reality scavenger hunt game to the alligator farm in St. Augustine and to Abbey Cooke's class from Belle Terre Elementary School. "What's living in your swamp?" is an authentic project that connected students with the community, environment and technology. Biology students at the i3 Academy developed content for the scavenger hunt app game for the alligator farm.
Once the Biology students created the content, game design students created the game using the online software Metaverse. The BTES students worked with a group of i3 students to test the scavenger hunt app and provide feedback to the high school students, allowing them to engage in the complete engineering process.

GeoLibrary Gets Its Soft Launch
The University Libraries are pleased to share the GeoLibrary, a new collection of Colorado Geographic Information System (GIS) data, now available online to the public.
"Anyone can use it for their research, their mapping projects, it's a place to go for GIS data," said Philip White, an Earth Sciences and Environment Librarian.
Philip White uses two screens to explore the GeoLibrary.
White spearheaded the project and has been working on it for over two years. He said he recognized the need for a system like this and wanted the University of Colorado Boulder to champion it.
"This is the first time Colorado has one depot for GIS spatial data comprised of data gathered from entities throughout the state that serves to encompass all elements of the state," he said.
The GeoLibrary assists the Libraries and campus in the university's overarching mission of supporting research, student learning, and providing a public service of making information accessible.
"It's helpful for people around the state not just in our institution, but hopefully students and researchers will start to use it for their work," he said.
With the GeoLibrary portal, researchers can type in "boundaries," and all major boundaries in the state will show up on the map. Same with subjects like "hydrology."
White anticipates that by the time of the program's hard launch this fall, the GeoLibrary will have doubled the natural and cultural content features it has now, and the building won't end there.
Researchers from the Sciences, CRDDS, ODSS, LIT, Metadata, and Administration were also instrumental in making the project work. Metadata Librarian Erik Radio began working on the GeoLibrary in December 2018. He, Metadata Coordinator Helen Baer, and Metadata Technician Katie Fletcher worked with Digital Library Software Architect Mark Stacy to upload data sets into the GeoLibrary and then map the geospatial metadata standards that would be beneficial for users.
"I think this work is so important because a lot of time and resources go into making these datasets, and we want to make sure we are describing them to the best of our ability and for varied audiences," said Radio. "Similarly, government data, which is currently the bulk of what is in the GeoLibrary, can be at risk due to budget cuts and other factors, and the GeoLibrary ensure that these important datasets have a more sustainable future."
Though the GIS-data system is meant for geographic sites in Colorado, White said the GeoLibrary team is open to suggestions of data to add to the collection and collaborating with professors to include research data sets.
White said he sees real potential in expanding the data collection based on our students' and researchers' needs.
The GeoLibrary is available to explore at geo.colorado.edu.

PhRMA Adopts Revised Marketing Code
Recommended Alerts
Federal Circuit Affirms ITC's Non-Institution Decision, Offering Guidance for Future FDCA-Related Section 337 Claims
In its long-awaited decision in Amarin Pharma. v. ITC, the Federal Circuit provided guidance on the U.S. International Trade Commission's discretion to decline to institute an investigation under section 337 of the Tariff Act (19 U.S.C. § 1337) and the interplay between section 337 claims and the Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act (FDCA) – an increasingly common issue at the ITC. The opinion also addressed the Federal Circuit's appellate jurisdiction to review the ITC's non-institution decisions. Companies that litigate at the ITC, particularly those that manufacture, distribute, or import FDA-regulated products, should be aware of the implications of this decision.
Time to Read: 4 minutes Practices: Life Sciences
On July 10, 2008, the Board of Directors of the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) unanimously adopted an updated and revised marketing code to govern the pharmaceutical industry's relationships with physicians and other healthcare professionals. The voluntary code revises the original code that was introduced in 2002 and will take effect in January 2009. The revisions to the prior code are limited and in many circumstances supplement the original code with current industry practice as it has evolved since 2002. Nevertheless, the new code includes a number of changes that will impact the way in which many pharmaceutical companies interact with healthcare professionals.
The original Code on Interactions with Healthcare Professionals (the "Code") set forth guidelines on how pharmaceutical companies and their representatives should appropriately interact with members of the medical community. It made it explicitly clear that all interactions are to benefit the patients and enhance the practice of medicine, and should focus on informing healthcare professionals about products, providing scientific and educational information, and supporting medical research and education. Business practices covered by the Code included consulting agreements, speaker training, gifts, and continuing medical education activities.
While the new Code does not make radical changes to the original Code, it does incorporate a number of modifications that will likely require review of and revisions to the compliance policies of most pharmaceutical companies. Several of the most significant changes to the Code are described below.
Gifts. The original Code permitted pharmaceutical companies and their representatives to offer gifts of minimal value to healthcare professionals, so long as those gifts were associated with the healthcare professional's practice (e.g., pens, notepads, etc.). Under the new Code, giving these types of "non-educational" items to healthcare professionals is no longer appropriate, even if those items are given to healthcare professionals for patient use. The new Code does not, however, directly address the industry practice of providing non-educational items directly to patients.
Modest Meals. The original Code stated that company representatives could provide occasional, modest meals in connection with informational presentations. The new Code would limit settings provided by field representatives and their immediate managers to in-office or in-hospital settings. Modest, occasional, out-of-office meals at restaurants or other locations remain permissible for speaker programs and substantive interactions with headquarters personnel.
Consultant and Speaker Arrangements. The original Code included basic standards for consulting and speaker arrangements, including various factors supporting the existence of a bona fide consulting or speaker arrangement. The original Code also allowed for entertainment and social events during consultant meetings and speaker training, so long as such events were clearly subordinate to the services being provided by the consultants or speakers in terms of time and emphasis. The new Code reemphasizes the current criteria for the establishment of a consultant relationship or speaker program, but expressly prohibits the industry from offering any recreational or entertainment activities in conjunction with consultant engagements or speaker training.
Speaker Compensation Cap. While the original Code did not provide specific guidance on this topic, the new Code provides that each company should cap the total amount of annual compensation it will pay to an individual healthcare professional in connection with all speaking arrangements (although consulting arrangements are not subject to the cap). While the new Code does not suggest a specific dollar amount for the cap, it requires that all compensation and reimbursement be reasonable and based on fair market value.
Disclosure of Consultant Relationships. In the case of consultants or speakers who also sit on committees that set formularies or develop practice guidelines, the new Code states that companies should require those speakers and consultants to disclose to the committees the nature and existence of their relationships with the company. The new Code also advises that speakers or consultants may be required by committees on which they serve to recuse themselves from decisions with respect to the product about which they speak or consult (although not to all matters relating to the company).
These revisions, along with new Code provisions addressing the use of prescriber data, training of sales representatives, and external verification of compliance, are likely to significantly affect the compliance and marketing policies and procedures of a majority of pharmaceutical companies. Other changes generally codify industry practices that have evolved since 2002, largely in response to the OIG Compliance Program Guidance for Pharmaceutical Manufacturers and to provisions in industry Corporate Integrity Agreements.
In order to ensure compliance with the new Code, it will be critical for companies to review all of the changes made to the Code as well as their internal policies and procedures in these areas. In addition, although compliance with the Code is voluntary, the emphatic endorsement of the original Code by the OIG suggests that the new Code will continue to substantially influence interactions between the industry and physicians and impact the industry's relationship with both state and federal entities.

White Sister guitarist Rick Chadock passed away Monday (Oct. 15) after a two-year battle with cancer.
It's with a heavy heart and gut wrenching sadness that I have to inform you that Rick Chadock has passed away early this morning. He lost a long battle with cancer last night ... we're all devastated. Rick and his amazing wife Chanel requested that his illness be kept private, not many people knew he was sick. The last two years have been like a bad dream, the last several months a nightmare ... as I type this I still can't believe it.
I miss him so much, it hurts ... Hug everyone you care about, tell them how much they mean to you ... while you can. Peace, Dennis.

Romanian group Mobexpert sells to CTP and leases back logistics hub in Mures
Romanian furniture producer and retailer Mobexpert, controlled by local entrepreneur Dan Șucu, sold to the real estate developer CTP the logistics center it held in Mureș in a sale and leaseback deal, according to sources contacted by Profit.ro.
Mobexpert invested about EUR 28 mln in 2007 in relocating its factories ConfoMex, StudioMex, IleforMex and MuresMex to the Vidrasău Industrial Park, in Mureș county. The investment also included the construction of the logistics platform with an area of 12,000 square meters.

Turkish whistling language recognised by Unesco
Hannah Lucinda Smith, Istanbul
Wednesday January 03 2018, 12.01am, The Times
The language, which is used in the Black Sea mountains, can be heard a kilometre away
For some residents of Turkey's Black Sea mountains, the high-pitched whistles from the peaks are an ear-splitting nuisance.
But now the region's "bird language", which dates back 500 years and is used by 10,000 people, has been recognised as a valuable part of its culture.
Unesco has added the language to its Intangible Cultural Heritage list. It is mostly used in the villages of Giresun, a rugged region of hilly peaks covered with lush foliage in northern Turkey. Although the distances between the settlements are not huge, to travel between them on foot takes hours. The bird language was developed as a way for neighbours to talk to each other.
Several communities around the world, including in Mexico, Greece and the Canary Islands, have developed

Q: check distinct values in datarowview.row.itemarray other than empty string I am getting datarowview through the following code
DataRowView s = grdSampleData.GetRow(grdSampleData.FocusedRowHandle) as DataRowView;

how can i check here that all values in s.Row.ItemArray is distinct. If value is null or empty string it should skip the distinct nature ie there can be multiple null values or empty string in ItemArray but no other same values.

A: you can use LINQ GroupBy to check the distinct:
 bool flag = s.row.ItemArray.Where(x => x != null)
            .Where(x => (x is string) && !string.IsNullOrEmpty((string) x))
            .GroupBy(x => x).Any(g => g.Count() > 1);

How it works:
To simplify, assume your item array has: [1, 1, 3, 3]. GroupBy(x => x) will group your array in two group:
[ [1, 1], [3, 3] ]

To know whether it is distinct or not, you just check whether any group has Count > 1, if yes, it is not distinct. Example in here is not distinct

Desmond Tutu: I support assisted dying
Former Church of England Archbishop Desmond Tutu says people should not be prevented seeking help to die with dignity
Desmond Tutu claimed he did not want his own life to be "prolonged artificially" Photo: REX FEATURES
By Miranda Prynne, News Reporter
12:06AM BST 13 Jul 2014
Desmond Tutu has supported calls for a rethink on the Church of England's stance on assisted dying claiming life should not be preserved "at any cost".
The retired Anglican archbishop said laws to stop people being allowed help to end their lives removed their "human right to dignity".
Tutu branded the treatment of Nelson Mandela, who was kept alive through a long and painful illness which saw him wheeled in and out of hospital and forced to take part in PR-driven photo shoots, an "affront to Madiba's dignity".
He claimed he did not want his own life to be "prolonged artificially".
The 82-year-old spoke out as the Church of England took the unprecedented step of calling for a major review on whether to allow assisted dying after Lord Carey, the former Archbishop of Canterbury, stunned senior bishops by declaring his support for a change in the law.
Life is too precious for lawmakers to assist its ending
Churches will use Magna Carta anniversary to 'reassert Britain's Christian heritage'
First women bishops could be appointed by Christmas
British guilt over jihadis is for dummies
Church of England calls for review on assisted dying
In the wake of Lord Carey's dramatic intervention, the Bishop of Carlisle, the Rt Rev James Newcome, said that the Church would now back a royal commission to re-examine the issue.
Bishop Newcome, who speaks for the Church in the Lords on health issues, said that while bishops had been "surprised" by the content and timing of the former Archbishop's article, it had highlighted "just what an important issue this is".
This week, the House of Lords will consider a proposal by Lord Falconer to allow doctors to prescribe terminally ill patients a lethal dose of drugs if they are believed to have less than six months to life. Lord Falconer said yesterday that there was now clear momentum for change.
Lord Carey publicly broke ranks with the official Church of England position on assisted dying with a newspaper article yesterday morning. In a major departure from his own previous position on the issue, Lord Carey argued that Christian teaching did not rule out helping people to end their lives out of compassion.
Although polling suggests that a majority of regular churchgoers could support a change in the law, Lord Carey was the first major figure in the church to articulate that view.
Now Tutu has backed him by claiming quality of life must be considered when debating the issue.
Writing in The Observer, he said: "I have been fortunate to spend my life working for dignity for the living. Now I wish to apply my mind to the issue of dignity for the dying. I revere the sanctity of life – but not at any cost."
He went on: "People should die a decent death.
"For me that means having had the conversations with those I have crossed with in life and being at peace. It means being able to say goodbye to loved ones – if possible, at home."
The former Archbishop of Cape Town revealed he had discussed his own death with his family.
"I have come to realise that I do not want my life to be prolonged artificially," he said.
"I think when you need machines to help you breathe then you have to ask questions about the quality of life being experienced and about the way money is being spent. This may be hard for some people to consider.
"But why is a life that is ending being prolonged? Why is money being spent in this way?
"It could be better spent on a mother giving birth to a baby, or an organ transplant needed by a young person. Money should be spent on those that are at the beginning or in full flow of their life. Of course, these are my personal opinions and not of my church."
He added: "I can see I would probably incline towards the quality of life argument, whereas others will be more comfortable with palliative care. Yes, I think a lot of people would be upset if I said I wanted assisted dying. I would say I wouldn't mind, actually."
He noted that Falconer's bill will be debated on Mandela Day, which would have been the 96th birthday of South Africa's first black president.
He called for his home country of South Africa to follow Britain's lead in re-examining laws around assisted dying.
"On Mandela Day we will be thinking of a great man.
"On the same day, on 18 July 2014 in London, the House of Lords will be holding a second hearing on Lord Falconer's bill on assisted dying. Oregon, Washington, Quebec, Holland, Switzerland have already taken this step.
"South Africa has a hard-won constitution that we are proud of that should provide a basis to guide changes to be made on the legal status of end-of-life wishes to support the dignity of the dying."
Tutu added: "What was done to Madiba [Nelson Mandela] was disgraceful.
"There was that occasion when Madiba was televised with political leaders, President Jacob Zuma and Cyril Ramaphosa. You could see Madiba was not fully there. He did not speak. He was not connecting. My friend was no longer himself. It was an affront to Madiba's dignity."
London rabbi, Jonathan Romain, has also spoken on behalf of 60 religious leaders in support of the Falconer proposals.
He said reform was needed now medical advances meant people were being kept alive in a physical and mental state that many felt was intolerable.
He said: "I see no sanctity in suffering, nothing holy about agony."

More than 63 tonnes of 'ghost gear' removed from Atlantic Ocean in 2020, Fisheries Department says
This article was published more than 1 year ago. Some information may no longer be current.
Fishing gear collected from the Atlantic Ocean./The Canadian Press
More than 63 tonnes of lost fishing gear was retrieved from the Atlantic Ocean in 2020 as part of a government program to reduce marine pollution, the Fisheries Department said Thursday.
Most of the so-called "ghost gear" collected were traps and pots from lobster and crab fishing, the department said in a news release. Ghost gear is the term used to describe lost, abandoned and derelict fishing nets and commercial fishing gear left behind in the country's waters.
The program to retrieve the lost gear was funded by Ottawa's Ghost Gear Fund, which financed 26 projects – 22 in Canada and four internationally – related to keeping the planet's oceans healthy.
"(Our oceans) need to be sustainable for the long term," Fisheries Minister Bernadette Jordan said in an interview Thursday.
The Fisheries Department said most of the gear was collected from the Bay of Fundy and the coastal waters off Nova Scotia, though some was gathered from the Gulf of St. Lawrence and off the shores of Newfoundland.
About 14 per cent of the material collected were nets and longline fishing equipment that together measured more than 3,200 meters, about the same length as 32 football fields.
The program also helped reunite gear to fishers, Jordan said, adding that more than 100 pieces of marked gear was claimed by harvesters. "It's not just taking it out of the ocean and putting it in a landfill site, it's being addressed for the long term," she said.
Jordan said the ghost gear project will tackle the waters of the Pacific Ocean off the coast of British Columbia in 2021.

Hyopsodontidae es una familia extinta de mamíferos primitivos, pertenecientes al orden de los condilartros. Vivieron del Paleoceno al Eoceno en Norteamérica y Eurasia y generalmente se los considera parientes cercanos a los Perissodactyla (caballos, rinocerontes y tapires).

Por lo general eran pequeños animales insectívoros. El género más común es Hyopsodus.

Todos ellos eran pequeños ungulados, su tamaño iba desde el de una ardilla al de una comadreja. Aunque mayoritariamente eran herbívoros ya que carecen de sus poderosos caninos, los hiopsodóntidos todavía tenían una dentadura generalizada, con un conjunto completo de los incisivos, caninos, premolares y molares. Durante el Paleoceno en Europa alcanzaron un nivel alto de diversidad, con los géneros Louisina y Monshyus en Hainin y después en el Cernaysiano con el Tricuspiodon, el Paratricuspiodon y el Paschatherium.

Dear all, With utmost joy we announce that yet another Bicentenary project, named CSI Bicentenary Youth Centre, at Karunya Nagar, Coimbatore, is dedicated. Thanks to the Mission Department of the CSI Madhya Kerala Diocese and the Rev Johnson Alexander and his successor Rev Levin Koshy Mallasseril, who toiled hard to make this possible. Many Parishes outside India and within India contributed toward the same. The first phase of the Centre, which includes a beautiful Chapel and Mission Quarters, was dedicated by the Bishop Rt Rev Thomas K Oommen and Bishop Rt Rev Timothy Ravinder, in the presence of many Clergy and laity, particularly our Youth, studying in Coimbatore.
We believe, any education which does not give emphasis on the spiritual nurturing of our generation would go futile. Therefore, this Centre is hoped to become a place of fellowship and worship, where our diaspora youth, irrespective of any differences could gather and encounter the very presence of God. This was constructed as part of the Projects included in the Bicentenary Celebration, commemmorating the 200 Years, following the arrival of the first CMS Missionary, Rev Thomas Norton, in 1816.

Playwright Vanessa Garcia's Audio Drama Weaves Together the Fall of the Berlin Wall and Cuba
Carolina Del Busto April 12, 2021 8:58AM

Wearing her signature black-rimmed glasses, bold gold earrings, and a deep red lip, playwright Vanessa Garcia beams over Zoom. The 42-year-old is preparing for the launch of her latest audio play, Ich Bin Ein Berliner.
Although the Miamian (and occasional New Times contributor) wrote the play during the height of the pandemic in 2020, she'd been workshopping the idea in her head for a handful of years.
"I've had this idea in my brain for ages," she says with obvious excitement. "This play about the moment when the Berlin Wall falls and everybody, including the audience, is in this fifth-grade classroom. And even though it's happening to this one character, everybody is involved."
The moment is personal for Garcia and is inspired by her own experiences. She remembers crying while watching the news of the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, when she was 11 years old. The moment — and her reaction to it — is etched in her memory.
She recalls the moment her teacher switched on the television to show the wall that once divided East and West Berlin fall to pieces. Seconds before, a prepubescent Garcia was writing notes to her classmates and passing scraps of paper to her friends. She had this unexplainable urge to pull a prank and have her entire class break out into rhythmic humming to the tune of Willie Nelson's "On the Road Again."
Her plan was quickly forgotten when she looked up at the TV.
"I just felt this inexplicable wave of emotion start to rise in me, and I started crying in my seat," she recounts. "As I got older and started to understand it, I realized [I reacted that way] because of Cuba. We don't think of it this way, but Cuba is a satellite of the Soviet Union. So, it is, in essence, an Eastern Bloc country 90 miles away from the United States."
The playwright explains that writing the story about the Berlin Wall was a way to work through the indescribable emotions she has carried with her for three decades.
When she was commissioned by Matt Stabile, artistic director of Florida Atlantic University's resident professional company, Theater Lab, to write an audio drama, she knew instantly what story she wanted to tell.
One of Garcia's first jobs after college was assistant to a British writer who wrote radio plays for the BBC.
"I've always been attracted to that [format]," says Garcia, who has written audio plays herself in the past. "It's a very different way of approaching production. I am extremely visual, but as I write audio plays, my brain switches into sound whenever I want to go visual."
As she speaks, it's clear how stories flow out of her almost effortlessly, like a quiet stream in the woods — and yet, as powerful as a storm. Garcia's words resonate with her audience. When she writes, it's almost as if she's revealing a piece of herself with the world, and it's that tender authenticity that moves viewers to tears, to laughter, to reflection.
Garcia, who recently wrote an essay for New Times about the plight of Elián González, works as a journalist, novelist, and playwright. She holds a Ph.D. in English from the University of California Irvine and has worked as an adjunct professor at Barry University and the Savannah College of Art and Design.
The topic that fascinates her the most? Cuba.
Her 2015 debut novel, White Light, features a Cuban-American protagonist. Her successful 2018 production, The Amparo Experience, told the origin story of Cuba's famous Havana Club rum. Her Carbonell-nominated play, The Cuban Spring, deals with the Cuban exile experience.
It's no surprise that Ich Bin Ein Berliner has ties to the island 90 miles off the Florida coast.
In simple terms, Ich Bin Ein Berliner is about a young girl who goes on a journey to discover what the fall of the Berlin Wall means to her and how her Cuban-exile roots influence her discovery. (The title, which translates from the German as I Am a Berliner, is a nod to John F. Kennedy's famous words — "As a free man, I take pride in the words Ich bin ein Berliner!" — uttered during a speech he delivered in West Berlin on June 26, 1963.
"Abstractly," says Garcia, moving her hands habitually as if trying to illustrate a clearer picture, "it's about what it means to be Cuban right now. It's about what connects all of us across borders, how borders are torn apart and created. I think it's extremely relevant right now in terms of all the borders we've been talking about building and all the borders that we're breaking."
Presented by Theater Lab, Ich Bin Ein Berliner is available online through May 23. Audiences have the option to purchase the simple audio drama for a cost of $5 or spring for an enhanced experience that includes accompanying visuals for $15.
Ich Bin Berliner. Available to stream through Sunday, May 23; fauevents.com. Tickets cost $5 to $15.

Not a "jihadi bride", but a female member of Isis
by Heidi Kingstone | @superlotuslane | @superlotuslane
Metropolitan Police/PA Wire/PA Images
Recently I wrote about the British Court of Appeal's decision to allow the return of Shamima Begum to fight the Government's ruling to remove her British citizenship. Begum lives in a squalid Syrian refugee camp. Before that, she spent more than three years under Islamic State rule. We refer to Begum and women like her as "jihadi brides", which takes away their agency as active participants in the violence and ideology to which they subscribe.
The media tends to stereotype and fetishise female terrorists, often characterising them as mothers and carers. We view these women as abhorrent and unnatural and they are rarely considered to be either as violent or ideological as men. Under the Isis occupation, women had fundamental roles as Sharia enforcers, which included the torturing of recalcitrant women and the preparation of Yazidi sex slaves for rape by their Isis husbands.
We have a gruesome fascination with women who commit brutal crimes, like Irma Grese, the warden of the women's sections of Auschwitz and Belsen, who was executed at Nuremberg and was infamous for her sexual violence against Concentration Camp inmates. It's no surprise that women who are part of these terrorist cells are as cruel as men, and as devoted. In 2016 it was estimated that 40 per cent of all French migrants in Isis-controlled territory were women. Both men and women are compelled by the same propaganda when it comes to narratives, beliefs, and grievances. The same factors that appeal to men appeal to women. The women of Isis were part of the propaganda machine.
When I corresponded with international lawyer Jela Keyany, she said, "let's start by ending the phrase 'Isis brides'. It should be "female Isis member." Keyany worked in Kurdistan and is one of the legal coordinators of the Yazidi Legal Network which tries to obtain justice for the survivors of the crimes committed by Isis.
In the case of Begum, the former east London schoolgirl, Keyany points out that she was not married when she entered Syria and that by calling the women who joined Isis "brides", "it presumes that there was no membership or participation. Isis is not only a violent organisation but also a terrorist organisation. Meaning, they know how to create theatre, and they have an understanding of its addressees. They know that there is sympathy or empathy towards women, specifically Muslim women, as there is a perception of weakness in the Western patriarchal mindset."
Women have played an essential role in the denial of genocide. Like Begum, many are now diminishing their role in the Yazidi genocide which began in Sinjar, Iraq in 2014. "They are successfully minimising their crimes to terrorist acts instead of war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide," says Keyany. Many Isis female members claim are they did not witness any violence against locals and have created a victim perspective for themselves.
Denial is the tenth stage of genocide, according to Dr Gregory Stanton of Genocide Watch. It begins with classification, symbolisation, discrimination, dehumanisation, organisation, polarisation, preparation, persecution, extermination and finally, denial. "Not knowing" has been used by women in almost all genocides.
Six years on, the Yazidis are still waiting for justice. Keyany is not necessarily against the return of Isis female perpetrators, but she wants accountability. "National courts are in the process of collecting evidence or have difficulties in getting the evidence. That's why we have the Yazidi Legal Network. Keeping the Isis women and men in Syria and Iraq is not a solution, especially for the locals as Isis still poses a danger for the survivors and witnesses." The next generation of Isis fighters, Yazidi boys, in particular, are indoctrinated by women as Cubs of the Caliphate.
David Haines was beheaded in Syria by Isis in 2014 by the cell knows as "The Beatles". The daughter of the British aid worker Bettany Haines said of Begum, "she knew what she was getting herself into. She needs to live with the consequences. From what I gather, Begum still has a strong hatred of the UK. She's a ticking time bomb." The women of Isis were part of the propaganda machine. Now, the narrative needs to change, and we should begin by acknowledging women's agency.

Q: Retrieve the document ids of a nested subcollection in Firestore I have the following structure in my Firebase Firestore:

Is it possible to query just the document ids shown in the middle column of the second image? This is my current query, which seems to me the most logical way to do it. The console.log returns the success message, but the array is empty:
async function getListofPosts() {
    try{
        return await useFireStore
        .collection('chats')
        .doc(`${postId}`)
        .collection('chat')
        .get().then(res => {
            let theMessageList = [];
            res.forEach(doc => {
                theMessageList.push(doc.data(), doc.id )
            });
            setMessageList(theMessageList);
        });
    }
    catch {
        console.log('error on getListofPosts')
    }
    finally {
        console.log('getListofPosts worked')
    }
}

Any help very much appreciated.
Cheers, Matt

A: Related issue - Firestore Cloud Function empty collection
It seems like your documents under collections chats and chat are empty (document IDs are shown in italics). So to solve this you shall use collectionGroup query.
return await useFireStore
        .collectionGroup('chat')
        .get().then(res => {
            let theMessageList = [];
            res.forEach(doc => {
                theMessageList.push(doc.data(), doc.id )
            });
            setMessageList(theMessageList);
});

Before going with collectionGroup query, I recommend you to read this query and it's limitations from here - https://firebase.google.com/docs/firestore/query-data/queries#collection-group-query
